PHP Streaming MP3

Question

I have a very similar situation to the person who asked: Can I serve MP3 files with PHP? Basically I am trying to protect mp3 files from direct download, so users have to go

Answer 1

Two things stand out:

1. You've got a Content-Length set. If you server is set to automatically gzip your output, this can mess with things. Try turning off Content-Length and see if that fixes it.
2. You've got about a thousand Content-Types set. Since it's Mp3 that you're serving, just use audio/mpeg. You can effectively get rid of the whole last header() command. It's easy to get carried away with HTTP headers.

Try it out and let us know how it goes!
